The concept of external viability was a 1973 solution to the question of delineating between the potentiality of life and actual life. At that time the womb itself was still shrouded in levels of mystery. There was even a question about whether or not The Unborn fetus was in fact biologically human see the concept of embryology. Based on today's current understanding we know that from conception the fetus embryo and unborn child are all human lives and as such qualify under the basic premise of inalienable rights. The idea that an independent third-party can arbitrarily obliterate the basic right to exist based on fanciful or flowery language is a kin to the logic used to deny blacks their basic rights or jews their basic rights.
